Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka was forced to leave the pitch due to an injury during England's UEFA Nations League match against Greece at Wembley Stadium on Thursday. Saka appeared to feel discomfort in his right leg and was substituted in the 51st minute.
England ultimately lost 2-1 to Greece, with Vangelis Pavlidis scoring both goals for the winning team, including their first-ever goal at Wembley, in the 49th and 90+4' minutes. Jude Bellingham scored England's equalizing goal in the 87th minute.
Interim England manager Lee Carsley addressed Saka's situation in a post-match press conference, stating, "In the build-up to the first goal, you could see he felt something in his leg." The medical team is currently assessing Saka.
Thursday's match marked a significant milestone for Greece, dedicating their win to late teammate George Baldock. The Greek team played with visible emotion and determination.
